<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Lizzie, post: 9476363, member: 2027&quot;]I have been accumulating and researching these for a while. I think I have figured out dates but would love some opinions from the experts.&nbsp; Thank you for any help or advice as always.</p><p><br /></p><p>First group I think is the oldest bunch and includes:</p><p>Garnet studded, with a safety clasp that opens from the top so 1900ish? Bohemian?</p><p>Flower shape one, which looks black in picture but is really a dark wine color. Pin extends beyond body so Victorian?</p><p>MOP horseshoe shape, Victorian? It came with a tag that said 1890&#039;s lace pin. It is upside down in the Picture.</p><p>Black one with pearls, Victorian mourning pin?&nbsp; It is missing its C clasp.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]444029[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]444030[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Second group: All have C-Clasps so 1900-1910? All stones test as glass. Top one I think is guilloche.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]444031[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]444034[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>Third group: 1930&#039;s? All have roll over clasps.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]444035[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]444036[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>And finally, this one: stone is glass, setting is brass, C-Clasp. Almost 3 inches wide. I am on the fence with it.&nbsp; 1900&#039;s or 1930&#039;s? Needs a vinegar bath I think.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]444037[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]444038[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
